Hello, Thanks very much for taking the time to file this upgrade report! It sounds like things went well for the most part, and where they didn't you've mostly done your own triage already by filing bug reports against the individual packages, so I have only a few comments here.

I don't think this is an appropriate failure mode for such a package. At most, evolution should prompt the user (via debconf) to close any running evolution sessions, and only *then* abort if the user continues without doing so. > 763 upgraded, 562 newly installed, 40 to remove and 1 not upgraded. > 212 not fully installed or removed. > It tries to download iceweasel, but ... > Err http://localhost/debian/ squeeze/main iceweasel i386 3.5.15-1 > Could not connect to localhost:9999 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111: > Connection refused) > Failed to fetch > http://localhost:9999/debian/pool/main/i/iceweasel/iceweasel_3.5.15-1_i386.deb > Could not connect to localhost:9999 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111: > Connection refused) > E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try > with --fix-missing? > The reason is that I'm using approx as a debian repository proxy, > but at this point approx is misconfigured in the middle of the upgrade. Heh, I don't think there's much we can do to help you with that; there's always some point in the install when local services will be unavailable. > After running dpkg --configure -a followed by apt -f install the > package approx gets correctly configured and apt-get can > download iceweasel, so te upgrade continues: > Desempaquetando el reemplazo de junior-games-gl ... > File /etc/blends/blends.conf is missing.

This problem has been already reported as bug #57062. > I have added a note to the bug. Bug #577062, I guess.

Installing xserver-xorg-video-ati solved the problem. That in particular is of concern. Could you please post a log of this upgrade (from /var/log/apt/term.log, maybe), so that we can see why these drivers were removed? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
